Best of Both Nests

Stanley's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Stork, clatter at each other all day long. Stanley just wishes the noise would end. Then one day, Mrs. Stork tells Stanley that Dad is going to fly off and build his own nest. At school, Stanley worries about Dad missing Fathers' Flyday Friday. His friend Stella says her father won't be there because his nest is too far away. "Two nests are better than one," says Stella. "Well, I say one nest is best," says Stanley. All week, Stanley misses his dad and worries that it's all his fault. On Father's Flyday Friday, Stanley's dad arrives at the last second. Later, his father tells him that the new nest is ready for Stanley to see. Dad says Stella can even visit sometimes, and Stanley thinks that maybe two nests will work out.Clarke, Jane is the author of 'Best of Both Nests ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780807506684 and ISBN 0807506680.
